What is the difference between LumaMap Lite and LumaMap?
LumaMap is the full, paid mapping application which includes powerful AI and art tools.
LumaMap Lite is a free version of the application that allows you to import an image or video, use the mapping tools and export your mapping as an image or video file. LumaMap Lite does not contain any of the AI or art tool features that are included in the full version of the application.
Can I import more than one media file?
The application handles just one piece of media at a time.
Can I projection map any surface with LumaMap?
In principle you can project on any surface, but some surfaces are more suitable others.
LumaMap works best when the projector is close to perpendicular with the projection surface and there is not too much perspective in the reference photo you import into the software.
Can I do cake mapping with LumaMap?
LumaMap’s workflow is currently not well suited to cake mapping, but this is something we hope to improve in the future.
Can I build a complete projection show in LumaMap?
LumaMap enables you to create creative facades using AI which can be used as standalone assets or taken into other software and combined with further animations and effects.
LumaMap also helps you quickly produce the ‘projector’s eye view’ mapping guide which is the starting point of a mapping show.
LumaMap is not intended to replace software like DaVinci Resolve or After Effects for animating complete projection shows.
Can I use LumaMap to play my show from my projector?
Yes, you can play media from LumaMap and output it through an external display.
Can I export my mapping to use with a media player?
Yes, absolutely. When you are happy with your mapping you can export what is in your canvas. You can then load that exported image or video on to a media player connected directly to your projector.
Can I use more than one projector?
You cannot output to more than one display from LumaMap.
If you want to use more than one projector you need to go through the mapping workflow for each projector individually.
Which AI is LumaMap using?
LumaMap is using DreamStudio by Stability.ai, the developers behind Stable Diffusion.
How many AI images can I generate?
There is no limit to how many images you can generate.
The software comes bundled with 1000 credits. This will give you 1000 image generations with standard models. You can use these up as quickly or slowly as you like. There is no daily limit and they don’t expire.
If you use up those 1000 credits, you can sign up to DreamStudio and purchase your own credits. You can then enter your API into the software to keep generating images to your heart’s content. Learn how to add your own API key.
Do I need an internet connection to use the AI features?
Yes, you need an internet connection to use the AI features of the software.
Can I use the AI images I create commercially?
As set out in the license agreement that applies to the software, you may only use media generated using the software for personal use.
